One-dimensional nanoclustering of the Cu(100) surface under CO gas in the mbar pressure range

The bulk terminated Cu(100) surface becomes unstable in the presence of CO at room temperature when the pressure reaches the mbar range. Scanning tunneling microscopy images show that above 0.25 mbar the surface forms nanoclusters with CO attached to peripheral Cu atoms. At 20 mbar and above 3-atom wide one-dimensional nanoclusters parallel to < 001 > directions cover the surface, with CO on every Cu atom, increasing in density up to 115 mbar. Density functional theory explains the findings as a result of the detachment of Cu atoms from step edges caused by the stronger binding of CO relative to that on flat terraces.

Comment on “Equilibrium constants and rate constants for adsorbates: Two-dimensional (2D) ideal gas, 2D ideal lattice gas, and ideal hindered translator models”

The paper by Campbell et al. was recently brought to my attention. This comment is written to provide greater clarity to the community to prevent misconceptions regarding the entropies being discussed in that work and to clarify the differences between the adsorbate standard states suggested by Campbell and by Savara.
